Tonight was just like any other week night. Rush home for ABA therapy for Jesse, get the kids fed, relax in front of the television. With all the hustle and bustle I figured a simple enough dish to get on the table in a reasonable time was a pasta and ground turkey dish. And it was simple enough to make my Jesse a batch of gluten free pasta as well.

What’s special about this pasta is that it really was just supposed to taste basic.

But the combination of savory ground turkey, calcium packed spinach, rich tomato and chicken broth base, and aromatic herbs made this dish pop. Even my famished fish and finicky shark loved it. And this is recipe is perfectly autism friendly, full of protein and veggies and substituted with a gluten free pasta.

Once the flavor medley hit my taste buds, I just had to get on the computer and share this with my readers. So in case you are wondering where the prep shots are, I didn’t even think about it, because this was just dinner. But I hope these final results pics are enough to get you drooling enough to get to kitchen and make this guilt free pasta dish yourself.

If you are feeling brave, feel free to throw on some diced pickled jalapenos-they made my pregnant cravings leap for joy!
